Black Coffee

Image
A little neat Cafe de corner, Decorated with fresh flowers and a solid marble floor. There's wonderfully cooked homemade dessert. Tiramisu, Cheese cake, chocolate fondue that pours. On the side there's a laced shelf stacked with books, The dainty tables hold sweets of caramel and toffee, While Peggy Lee and Etta James make art with jazz, I'll do the chores from nine to four and in between I'll drink, Black coffee. Etta James, Black Coffee. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRxS7Q64xUQ Peggy Lee, Black Coffee. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqIeKYRLhno

I'll make love to jazz.

On that piano with that bass, Something lures my voice. Rolling in the silky shaped bed,  I'll make love to jazz, Scatting and swinging,  Singing slow with passion and sweetness, Hitting the blue notes as I go. Drunk in the sensual sex of each melody. 'At last' on a late afternoon, Listen to the saxophone's seduction, Please fly me to the moon. 

Maybe

Maybe on a summer day, We'll cross each other's path. Pick up the courage to give it a try, Like we both know we should. Maybe on a winter day, You'll snowboard and I'll ski. We'll do all sorts of crazy together, Start by building a house on a tree. Maybe on an autumn day, We can go pick colored leaves, If we're bored we can pack, For a short visit to Geneve. Maybe on a spring day, When the weather is kind and warmer, We can marry beside the sea, On the beach around that corner.

Lost un found.

On an ordinary day, Left home to dig under the sea. Hoping to bring some treasures home, He sits so patiently. The waves were exceedingly excited to welcome A rare guest on such occasions. Through the rocks and slippery mosses, Falling with vagrancy. They cannot find him, He has not been found. Uncertain of his home bound. *This poem is triggered by a tragedy that happened very recently to a friend's father. May he come home safe and may we cherish all that we have and the ones that we love.

Graduation

Who would've thought we'd all see the day, Where we would  graduate, be off and away. Four years in the same place with the same faces, In the corners of each room we leave our traces. Now we all have to part our own ways, Soon we'll face living rooms with our own bills to pay. May a map and a bible be the guide if we're lost, Return home to our families every summer, every frost. Good luck to us all in whatever we choose to do, Thank you for the people I could always turn to. With success in our reach, together let's chase our dreams, A bittersweet kiss farewell to the time of our teens.

"Three little birds sat on my window, And they told me I don't need to worry." Four clouds made the sun a little more blurry. They said "Take life slow, don't scurry." Five brooks playfully washes it self in the day. "Laughing when it trips and falls over stones on it's way" Six horses march proudly over the grass, Patient and politely they let the rabbits pass. Seven streaks of magenta orange penetrate the sky, And  "Somewhere over the rainbow blue birds fly." Eight windows are caressed by the wind, Subtly and slowly they seductively swing. Nine children wait for their tooth fairy, Under their pillows are buried berries as bait. Ten stars align to see who shines brightest, The moon comes out to judge the contest. *Songspiration: A little activity where the stimulus were lyrics from random song chosen by 3 f am ily members.

I won't find another you.

Every time I have hope that you still care, It doesn't take too long to see, you don't really. Life is all about you and yourself. I'm honest about what I feel but I end up - 'insecure and needy'. All excuses, they're hurtful and lame. You want love, happiness, fortune and fame. It's good to be ambitious for man to build up a name. But careful, going too fast makes one lose meaning of the game. "One simply cannot have it all." Mother always said, Everyday she reminded as she tucked me to bed. You proved w hat we had isn't worth the tears that I've shed, From now on, I'll won't let you get to my head, Focus on someone that truly loves me instead. Thank you for showing me the ups of our breakup, It won't be the end of the world when we're through. I'll try to forgive and forget all the chances you blew. I'll find someone better. Please stay- watch what I'll do.  I know I won't ever find ano
